It takes a steady downhill walk to reach the sea, be prepared to do it uphill if the elevators provided by Riomaggiore choose not to function (obviously, this is not the apartment's fault, but worth knowing.

Excellent apartment, easy-to-find location, just 50 metres from the entrance of the no-car zone. All conveniences included. Very helpful and communicative hosts. Riomaggiore tends to be crowded in the summer but this apartment can give you the comfort and peace you deserve.

Amazing location! The property is close to everything, yet you still enjoy evening peace and a lovely summer breeze on top of the hill. It has all the facilities you need for a comfortable stay, and everything is made with great quality. The host was very friendly, and having a parking spot was a big plus. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it!

Amazing apartment. Our host was so lovely. The apartment had everything we needed and more! Would definitely stay again. Great location with a patio to sit and have a drink.

Stairs. It’s worth it . But the host is helpful with a map. We caught a taxi up from the station as we had luggage and children. I would recommend that when you first arrive and then after that can use lifts.

Location! Instructions and responsive host. All the amenities and the generous wine and beer on arrival. Washing facilities Kitchen well stocked And linen

Loretta was brilliant. She was on site when we arrived and was very helpful throughout our stay with taxis and general enquiries. We were able to message her and received replies straight away. 11/10 for Loretta Also the amenities were great and the wine etc on arrival was lovely touch.

The internet was really slow and the TV didn't work. I wish it was a little more homey feeling like a comfortable sofa to sit and watch TV.

The view. The location it was great! Very nice bathroom and shower.

Was positioned at the top of Riomaggiore so there is a bit of a climb up to the apartment, but wasn't too bad for us and kept us fit!

We had a very warm welcome from the host, she even added a special little welcome touch with a bottle of prosecco waiting for us as it was our honeymoon. She was incredibly responsive to any questions and provided us with lots of information about the area. The apartment itself was a great size, with all the facilities you could need and in a good position in Riomaggiore. The parking was a bonus. The laundry room was great too!

There is nothing I did not like.

We booked all three rooms at this property-Mythos, Theros and Anthea. The rooms were lovely, clean and well stocked. We were warmly greeted at the property and oriented to the amenities. A bottle of wine and local craft beer were really nice touches. The location of the property was ideal. Close to town with a short walk and far enough to not be noisy at night. The top terrace at Mythos was huge and a great gathering spot for our party. The views were amazing. We spent three nights here and want to come back for at least a week and will definitely stay here. Amazing place!

Very nice and comfy apartment with all facilities. Parking garage is available as well (extra payment)

Stayed in July 2024

Master bedroom ceiling and both bathrooms had very low sloped ceilings. Way house is constructed and not owners fault, per se, but just something to be aware of in the Mythos Apt. Stairs/rocks leading up to apartment were largely in rough shape and a definite tripping hazard. Stairs leading down at the street had no railing and very unsafe drop of 8 feet if unaware or lose balance. Again something to be mindful of and would be a quick fix to greatly improve safety.

Home set on beautiful location, stairs and lift to town close by. Washing machine was a huge plus. Very helpful and fantastic communication with Loretta who was fabulous. Fridge and freezer were plenty of space and kitchen area very useful with many basics included/available.

The balcony was breath taking. The balcony had a shaded table where we could enjoy meals in the evening and a huge umbrella where we could sit in the shade and just enjoy the view.

Stayed in July 2024

The bed was hard and the linen did not appeal to us. We could not open one of the doors in the kitchen out onto the balcony. A little more attention to the inter and external cleaning would improve things.

Loretta was very helpful during our stay she is lovely. The location above and away from all the crowd and noise from the main town area was great. A garage under the apartment was handy however the 25 euro per day was a little steep.

At the top of Riomaggiore, it's a tough climb for elderly. Bed was a little springy. Nice patio but it did not have an unobstructed view of the town.

Modern, clean apartment stocked with wine and other amenities. Our hostess Loretta was very nice.

There was nothing we didn't like.

The location was great, quiet and away from the hustle and bustle. The accommodation was well equipped and delighted by the welcoming bottle of wine and beer. There was nothing we needed everything was supplied.

Nothing-we loved it!!

The location was beautiful. The view was exceptional with a private balcony. The host was very helpful.

A few suggestions and not negatives: Some citronella candles or something for guests when sitting on the amazing terrace to keep away the mosquitos in evening (we could only find hundreds of citronella soaps to buy in town, not candles - someone is missing a business venture here!) Some wasp catchers to keep them away during the day so you can enjoy a meal on the balcony - they were a bit annoying but you are in the country! Fix the sun loungers, the arms are a bit broken as have come unattached but still super comfy and useable

Best apartment we've ever booked on Booking to date. Modern spec, comfy bed, large shower room, fast wi-fi, well-equipped kitchen, food, wine and beer left for us on arrival to enjoy, easy to contact hosts to ask for help or questions and they are so kind and lovely. They gave us a tour of the property when we arrived. The property is located at the top of Riomaggiore but don't let this put you off! If you don't want to walk up the steep hill through town, there is a lift just to the right as you come out the train station that takes you halfway up the hill - then do a short walk along the road to the main church and just next to the left side of this is the entrance to another lift which takes you up to the road the apartment is on = no sweating! There are some steps up to the property though. They own the 3 flats located here but this top flat (the one with the biggest terrace at the top of the steps) was worth the extra money just for the INCREDIBLE VIEWS from the terrace. By far our favourite property so far. We also much preferred this property up high in a quiet location than having a property located in the marina - Riomaggiore is famous from the movie 'Luca' and tiktok trends so it is now heaving with tourists in the day, especially at sunset which means the marina is crammed and noisy of people coming back from sunset boat trips which isn't relaxing (don't worry, a lot of them disappear after sunset as staying in other towns so it's more chilled to go out for drinks after). But that's the best thing about where this flat is located because there are no shops or trekking routes on this road means it's super quiet! So the best thing we did whilst there was get takeaway pasta and cheeses and meats from the shops below to sit and eat in peace and quiet on our terrace to watch the BEAUTIFUL sunset with our free wine.

Wonderful stay. We had two apartments travelling with family. Accomodation was great in town 1. Beautiful town with plenty of restaurants at bottom of the hill.

Stayed in September 2023

The bed felt like a blow-up mattress and wasn't very comfortable. Lots of stairs too! Be careful you don't take the wrong ones up.... your legs will be sorry :)

Location was great. Definitely appreciated the washing machine, onsite parking, and free grocery items. If you have the chance, head up to the top terrace!

Stayed in September 2023

It was the highest house away from down so anticipate to walk a lot. Not easily accessible (lots of stairs). 10 minute walk to the train station. Those with large bags, anticipate using a cab.

The hosts were very nice and we liked the size/layout of the home. The amenities provided matched the detail of the booking.

Stayed in September 2023

We enjoyed our stay so these are all minor areas of improvement: The flat was quite dark and could certainly benefit from larger or Velux windows. The kitchen light was broken and the living room one had a constant flicker. Limited headroom area in many areas, but that’s just nature of the apartment and something to be mindful of.

View from the terrace over Riomaggiore was wonderful, and our exceptionally responsive host Loretta really went out of her way to make our stay pleasant (and help restore power when the thunderstorms tripped the circuit not one but twice). Plenty of towels and a welcome bottle of Cinque Terre wine and milk were all nice touches. A public lift was a short walk away.
